The Saskatoon Police Service will be hosting the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) blitz on May 23 and 24 in the Saskatoon area.

Police from all over Saskatchewan will be working alongside partner agencies to identify traffic violations and take enforcement action. This two-day initiative will take place at various locations around Saskatoon.

Enforcement activities will focus on offences related to speeding, distracted driving, seatbelt use, unlicensed drivers and commercial vehicle standards. As usual, impaired driving enforcement will be a top priority.

STEP is a multi-agency task force dedicated to improving traffic safety across Saskatchewan. Members include municipal police agencies, the RCMP, Saskatchewan Highway Patrol (SHP), Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Police, and representatives from SGI and the Ministries of Justice and Finance.
